Die, Die Birdie is the first in the Bird Lovers series by J. R. Ripley. It is the BN Readouts Free Friday book (which usually lasts all weekend), now matched at Kindle and Kobo US.
BN: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/die...=9781496718556 Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Birdie-Bird-L...dp/B07GMT42L7/ Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/die-die-birdie-1 If you like the freebie, the second in the series, Towhee Get Your Gun, is inexpensive at $0.99 - not sure if this is a long term price or a sale price. (The rest in the series seem to be $3.99 and $5.99...)

If Death Ever Slept is the 29th in the Nero Wolfe/Archie Goodwin series by Rex Stout. It has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. Stout's titles only rarely go on sale in the US, but Random House does seem to have been putting them on sale occasionally, one-by-one, spaced far apart, and usually not for very long. So I've been grabbing them when I see them.
Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003JMFP10 Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/if-death-ever-slept Also on sale at Kindle UK for £1.49: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B003JMFP10 Spoiler:

The Green Ripper is another title in another series (18th in the Travis McGee series by John D. MacDonald) that rarely goes on sale in the US, and is insanely expensive (normally $11.99 in the US) when not on sale. It has dropped to $2.99 and is IMO another one of those grab-it-when-you-see-it-on-sale titles...

Not on sale, but I just picked up "The Good Old Stuff," a selection of his classic pulp stories from the 1950s. There's also a second collection available. Here's the link:
https://www.amazon.com/Good-Old-Stuf...sr=1-6-catcorr I have this in Hardback - First Edition - but it's currently in storage. Also, some of his earlier novels are available for $2.99-$3.99, under some series called 'The Murder Room' - considerably less expensive than most of his ebooks. I have no further knowledge about them, however. Here's a link, so you can get a look at them: https://www.amazon.com/Drowner-John-...ateway&sr=8-19 Too bad the original covers couldn't be used. These current covers are about as interesting as my freshly-laundered underwear. Last edited by Dr. Drib; 05-14-2019 at 10:15 AM. |

Rogue Wave (aka Hat Check) by David Berens is $0.99 at Amazon US. The BookBub blurb mentions Elmore Leonard, but it sounds more like a Carl Hiaasan book to me.

It's the first in a series of six and all six are on sale for $0.99 a piece through May 17. |

I can't tell if this is the wrong thread for this. The description doesn't make it out to be a mystery, and the book is too new to have reviews. But crime is the genre Max Allan Collins is known for...
USS Powderkeg by Max Allan Collins is $0.99 at Amazon. Quote:
